A complex wine with layers of aromas and fruit, this Rhone blend consist of 38% syrah, 35% grenache, 19% mourvedre and 8% petite sirah. Red fruits - maraschino cherry, raspberry, and ripe strawberry - along with cinnamon spices and white pepper, beckon upon opening the bottle. An inviting mid-palate of tobacco and leather draws through the finish with silky tannins.
